“…Now, the gold fever is still thriving. But, the difference between then and now is the technology that provides convenient and proficient methods for gold hunting…” Added Xaviera Arata

Gold mining was a back-breaking job then and miners had to use very crude methods to sift gold from the ground and separate it from other minerals. Thanks to technology metal detectors were invented which has made gold hunting a lot easier.

Many areas in California have been targeted for mining expeditions since mid-50s. Most of them were along bodies of water since this is where gold is highly concentrated. Gold hunting has been so hot in California still is even today. Metal detecting enthusiasts are having fun hunting, but a word of caution: always seek proper permission from local authorities.

For those eager to go on a gold hunting expedition after what has been shared, here are some tips:

1.    Make sure that your metal detector is the one the suits you best.

2.    For those who have a new metal detector, be sure you learn how to use it. Read the manual carefully and practice it on a test ground.

3.    You can never be called a certified metal detector enthusiast if you do not obey the laws. A true enthusiast knows what laws apply to what area and follows it especially in the hunting ground areas.  

4.    Treasure hunting or metal detecting does not rely on its success solely on luck but on research and a well-thought plan. Acquiring maps, studying areas for a possible hunting expedition and learning new methods in hunting are the sure ways to make you the winner in treasure hunting. Do not make the mistake of going to your area with a clean slate on your mind.

5.    When hunting, always ready yourself with the proper suit and equipment.

6.    Treasure hunting is fun so bring along your friends.

7.    A treasure hunter is always wise and ready during emergencies. Do not forget to bring a first aid kit with you.

8.    Never leave without an ample supply of food and water.

9.    You might want to consider participating in a treasure hunting club.

10.    With all of these in mind, the last thing you need to do is to have fun.
